Ingredients

  • Cookies:
  • 10 tablespoons margarine, softened
  • 2 tablespoons fat-free sour cream
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 1 cup confectioner\'s sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • ground cinnamon, as garnish
  • Sugar Frosting:
